How much? And what’s the average run-out like?Whidden Gun Works for starters from fired brass.
My custom made dies took about 2+ months. Full length and seater.
No run out. Send 3x fired brass in and be done with it. According to what youre doing and what caliber you can probably get by with the off the shelf dies. Give em a call.How much? And what’s the average run-out like?
I would, But I do not think his dies fit in a Forster pressWarner

Here is the thing. I have a extremely accurate tactical rifle. Can regularly shoot 1/4 with factory ammo. Even squeezed a .162, 3 shot group this summer. It is a very good rifle to try to practice great load development on. I am looking seriously at fclass with it. I did go to a benchrest competition this summer with a buddy and feel in love with it. So did he. So even before I get a benchrest rifle, I want to seriously learn how to reload for benchrest level shooting. I have a very nice setup with very precise equipment. Except a neck turning lathe and top level dies.Are gonna be shooting benchrest or f-class or something else ??? The intended use of the firearm would dictate my decision.

In a recent thread I posted this week, with dies I realize you get what you pay for and the runout with them is brutal. So I want to get the best dies possible, and learn reloading at benchrest level before I get there. So is it necessary to have such a high level die? No. But it’s more for learning and developing benchrest level loads now, I do not want to waste a barrel life on learning then.
Thank you!!! Not to far from me. I will do it for certain!Dan, I see you live in the Northeast, don't know exactly where but I would suggest you sign up for the 1000yd. shooting school in Williamsport if Benchrest is your interest. It will significantly cut your learning curve and all of the questions that arise will be answered by gifted shooters that have been doing this for a long time. It is the best money I ever spent. Met great guys and within a year I was competitive. Just some food for thought.
I won one at a match one time and tried it when it came in.Has anybody tried Neil jones dies?
6.5 unfortunately he does not makeIf it's one of the calibers they make a Harrell's Precision sizing die for $75 will not be the limiting factor in your groups. You send them 3 twice fired unsized cases and $75 and you will have the die in a couple of days.
